Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
In Episode 2, Steven’s frantic search for Dodo (cand_evt_scene_1987c86ab37a8cfe_01/cand_evt_scene_1987c86ab37a8cfe_02) establishes his prioritization of her safety. This continuity is evident in Episode 3 as he challenges the Savages’ fear (cand_evt_scene_e5f7dba64e82d3c6_01), echoing his defiance against Edal’s authority.
